Nanny Yun smiled gently, "Your eighth sister is still young, so she doesn't need anything.

But pregnant women tend to be greedy, so you can buy her some snacks that she likes."

"Okay, then mother, do you have anything to tell Eighth Sister?"

"Just let her rest assured and take care of the baby. As for the housework, she can do it if she can, but don't force herself if she can't. This is what your eighth brother-in-law promised me and your father.

When the day comes, my mother will go to see her

Everything is fine at home, tell her not to worry."

"Got it, mom. I'm off now."

"Go ahead, be careful on the road"

Zhu Jiu is now wearing the same half-worn clothes that her mother wore when she first entered the palace.

The first thing to do when you get to the street is to change your clothes.

I came all the way to see my eighth sister, so I had to give her enough noodles.

Thinking of the things I want to buy, I decided to rent a carriage. My eighth brother-in-law is a scholar, and if a farmer wants to support a scholar, the family must be very poor.

My eighth sister is pregnant, both adults and children cannot lack nutrition.

Zhu Jiu picked out two pieces of fabric suitable for making clothes for the elderly, two pieces for his eighth sister, two pieces for his eighth brother-in-law, and two pieces for making clothes for babies.

Seeing that the cloth shop has affordable prices and good quality goods, "Boss, are you responsible for delivery here?"

"I can deliver it, but you have to pay for the errands, sir."

"Row"

Zhu Jiu bought it all, and the shopkeeper was so happy.

"You should deliver the portions I have allocated to these seven places.

Be careful when you deliver it, don’t get it dirty, or I’ll have to take it back for a refund.”

"Don't worry, sir. If it gets dirty or broken, you don't need to tell me. I will change it for you quietly and send it back.

If you buy more, I will give you the best price.

The cloth and the thread ball together cost 138 taels, the hair rope and beads together cost 12 taels, and the errand fee costs 1 tael, totaling 151 taels."

"Boss, I bought so much, won't you give me something as a gift?"

"Well, can I give you two bags of cloth? They are all good fabrics that I picked out, and they are large pieces. They can be made into a purse."

"Fine"

Zhu Jiu left the cloth shop contentedly. Now that she had her eighth sister, she had to arrange for the other seven sisters as well. She was very fair.

Zhu Jiu went to the silver shop again and bought bracelets, hairpins and earrings, all made of silver, but with very exquisite designs.

Thinking back to ancient times, the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law seemed quite serious. The mother-in-law would even snatch the jewelry and dowry from the daughter-in-law.

Then she picked out another bracelet worn by an old man. As for how to use it, it was up to her to decide.

I will buy the other seven sisters' when they come back. Anyway, I have five days off and I have to go to all seven sisters' homes. I can't favor one over the other.

Zhu Jiu drove the carriage to the grain store, the meat stall, the wine store, the grocery store, and the bakery.

The carriage was full of space, so he ate roast chicken and drove out of the city.

The original owner had never been to the eighth sister's house, but just knew the address. He asked along the way and finally arrived at Xing'er Village when the sun was about to set.

From a distance, I saw a group of aunts gossiping under a big tree.

Isn’t this a ready-made intelligence station?

The village is full of familiar faces, and the appearance of such a carriage has already attracted attention.

"Hello, ladies! Do you know how to get to Xu Zicheng's house?"

"What a spirited young man! Are you a relative of the Xu family?" an old lady sewing shoe soles asked curiously.

"Are you a classmate of Xu Xiucai?"

"Xu Zicheng is my brother-in-law. Could any of you please give me directions?"

An old lady slapped her thigh and said, "So you are Zicheng's brother-in-law!"

We've all heard of you. We've heard you're amazing.

It's so prestigious to work for a big shot. You can get a lot of salary, right?

I'm just about to take my grandson home for dinner, I'll take you there on the way."

Zhu Jiu: Am I so famous?

"Then I'll trouble you, Auntie."

Along the way, Zhu Jiu finally realized how strong the old lady's communication skills were.

"We're here, we're here. The yard in front is his house. Everyone should be inside now."

"Thank you, Auntie. These candies are for the children to sweeten their mouths."

"You are so polite. Isn't this just a side thing? Then I thank you on behalf of my child."

Zhu Jiu smiled and said goodbye to the old lady and continued forward, knocking on the door of a mud-brick house.

"Is anyone home?"

The old woman who was picking vegetables in the yard said loudly without even looking up, "Old man's wife, go see who's here?"

Niu Yaya came out of the kitchen, wiping her hands on her apron as she walked

When I opened the door, I saw a handsome young man, well dressed, with a large carriage behind him.

Niu Yaya asked somewhat reservedly, "Are you asking for directions?"

Zhu Jiu smiled and said, "Is this Xu Zicheng's home?"

“Yes, he is my brother-in-law.”

"Hello sister-in-law, my name is Zhu Jiu, Zhu Yan is my sister"

Niu Yaya then opened the door, turned around and shouted, "Mom, someone is coming from my fourth brother's family."

Wow, after this shout, everyone in the room came out, big and small.

The others were quite reserved. Xu Zicheng and his wife came forward with a smile and said, "Little brother, come in quickly. You must be exhausted from the journey."

"Eighth sister, Eighth brother-in-law, I am a martial artist, this distance is nothing.

Eighth sister, mother brought you some things, but it seems that this carriage cannot enter the yard."

Aunt Xu said, "Da Lang, Er Lang, go and tear down the gate and bring the carriage in.

The fourth daughter-in-law's younger brother, come in and have a rest."

Zhu Jiu: If he had known this earlier, he would have rented a smaller carriage.

"Auntie, you can just call me Xiaojiu. I'm sorry, I seem to have caused trouble for everyone as soon as I got here."

The whole family had heard Zhu Yan brag about how great his younger brother was.

I was quite reserved when I first met Zhu Jiu.

But Zhu Jiu always had a smile on her face, giving people a sense of intimacy. In addition, her figure was not as burly as a man's, so she looked like a handsome young man.

Aunt Xu, the head of the family, said, "Xiaojiu, what's the big deal? You came all the way to see your sister, we are so happy.

"Eldest wife, second wife, stop standing there and go boil some water. Xiaojiu has come so far and hasn't even had a sip of hot water yet."

Zhu Jiu smiled and said, "No wonder my sister kept telling us when she came home that it was her blessing to marry into the Xu family. She must have done good deeds in her previous life, and now she has a good mother-in-law who understands things and loves the younger generation."

As soon as I saw Auntie, I felt very close to her. It seems that we are destined to be a family.

We are one family and we don’t have to talk behind each other’s backs. I won’t be polite to my aunts, uncles, brothers, and sisters-in-law.”

Aunt Xu smiled so hard that her mouth was split to her ears. "We are a family, so there is no need to be polite. Let's sit inside."

Zhu Yan's eyes sparkled. Her brother was just as capable as she had imagined.

Xu Zicheng put his fist to his mouth and coughed twice. His brother-in-law had a keen eye and could tell at a glance that his mother was buying into this.

After drinking a bowl of tea, there was a cry of surprise from the yard.

The old lady yelled outside unhappily, "What are you doing? Why are you so startled? Can't you see that Xiaojiu and I are having a good chat?"
